Landschap met een staande boer of landarbeider 1848 - 1888

"Landschap met een staande boer of landarbeider" is a charcoal drawing by Anton Mauve, a prominent Dutch painter known for his depictions of rural life. The artwork, likely a study for a larger painting, portrays a standing figure, possibly a farmer or farm laborer, in a landscape. Created between 1848 and 1888, the drawing showcases Mauve's skill in capturing the essence of his subject with subtle strokes, suggesting a sense of movement and the vastness of the open countryside. Now held in the Rijksmuseum, this drawing exemplifies Mauve's signature style, which combined Realism with a touch of Romanticism.
